Panna Cotta (5)

Ingredients

  • 2½ sheets gelatine
  • 250ml milk
  • 300ml double cream
  • 60g caster sugar
  • 1 vanilla pod, split lengthways

Method

  1. Add the sheets of gelatine to a bowl of cold water and soak for 5 mins.
  2. Scrape the seeds out of the vanilla pod using the back of a knife
  3. Pour the milk and cream into a saucepan with the sugar and vanilla seeds. Whisk to combine and bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat.
  4. Take the gelatine out of the cold water and squeeze out the excess, then add to the milk mixture.
  5. Stir until completely dissolved.
  6. Tip into four ramekins and place in the fridge to set for at least a couple of hours.
